The procurement pertains to the industry category of Health and Social Work Services (CPV Code 85000000) and is being managed electronically. The procurement stage is active, with the tender period ending on 30 May 2025, and the contract period commencing from 1 July 2025 to 30 June 2027. Interested suppliers must register on the Council’s e-procurement system to access and submit their bids. The project aims to deliver outcome-focused, community-based support, leveraging partnerships with various local entities. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses in the service delivery sector, especially those specialising in health and social care services. SMEs and VCSEs are particularly encouraged to take part, as the Council seeks innovative solutions to maximise existing local assets and improve community health outcomes. The procurement method is open and above the threshold, promoting fair competition and ensuring that the selected partners are capable of meeting the defined outcomes. Providers with expertise in proactive interventions, community connection, and physical wellbeing are well-suited for this contract, offering them a multi-year opportunity to expand their service offerings and establish long-term collaborations with Norfolk County Council. ## Notice Norfolk County Council is intending to procure services that will offer proactive support to people in Norfolk to improve their health, social and wellbeing outcomes whilst preventing, reducing or delaying the need for social care. Over the past 18 months, Norfolk County Council Adult Social Services Directorate, working together with partners across the Norfolk and Waveney Integrated Care System, has been working to transform our approach from reactive support towards more proactive, targeted, and preventative support - the 'Proactive Intervention' programme. We have piloted a model to support proactive interventions and are now looking to implement this on a wider scale. This will include commissioning new services to deliver outcome-focused, community-based support. Example outcomes to be met are likely to include improving long-term social and community connection, and physical activity, strength and mobility. We are looking for providers to work in partnership with us to develop creative solutions that maximise the use of existing assets in their local area. This will be a multi-year opportunity. The service specification will be informed through collaborative discussions with local partners including Health and Wellbeing Partnerships, existing service providers, VCSE, NHS partners, District, City and Borough Councils and the voice of our residents. These discussions will be ending in early February, and we will provide feedback and evidence gathered through this process as part of the tender information. Please ensure that you monitor in-tend as we may potentially publish further information before the tender is released.
